<p class="MsoNormal">REMINDER – RSVP BY SEPTEMBER 27<sup>TH</sup>. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Dear SOE Graduate Students,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Based on student feedback from the Town Hall meeting earlier this year, the SOE started the Professional Development Series which is designed to provide support and tools to help SOE students prepare and succeed in their chosen career.
A mix of faculty, post-docs, administrators, and professionals are invited to lead these panel discussions and learning sessions throughout the year.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The first event in this series was an alumni panel hosted by Associate Dean Comeaux. We heard PhD alum share their experiences and strategies for advancing and completing their dissertation project, and offered pro tips to graduate students
to better position themselves for competitive post grad opportunities. You can find the recorded session
<a href="https://education.ucr.edu/graduate-students#alumni_panel_may_2021">here</a>.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>The next event, Grant Writing 101, is scheduled on Thursday, September 30<sup>th</sup> from 2:30-3:30 pm with new Graduate Writing Center Coordinator, Alexis Smith.
</b>Alexis joined UCR this summer as the new Graduate Writing Center Coordinator. As a writing center consultant and administrator, she has experience advising graduate students on the grant writing process at Texas A&M University and the University of Alabama.
The session will cover the basics of doctoral grant writing such as how to search and apply for grants, application best practices, and examples of grants specific to education students. A brief Q & A will follow.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><u>Faculty are welcome/encouraged to join to share their experiences with respect to grant writing.
